The highlights, lowlights, and noteworthy developments in practice Tuesday.

The Miami Dolphins conducted their final training camp practice at the Baptist Health Training Complex on Tuesday before heading to Tampa for a joint practice Wednesday before the preseason game against the Buccaneers at Raymond James Stadium.

Here's the attendance report for the Dolphins practice: RB Chris Brooks, WR River Cracraft, WR Braylon Sanders, TE Tanner Conner, TE Hayden Rucci, C Aaron Brewer, T Kendall Lamm, LB Anthony Walker, Jr., DT Benito Jones, LB Emmanuel Ogbah, CB Cam Smith, and S Jevon Holland were not working.

  • Cornerback Ethan Bonner, running back Jaylen Wright, and tight end Jody Fortson Jr. practiced with a red (no-contact) jersey.
  • Wide receiver Tyreek Hill was spotted wearing a protective brace or wrap around his right hand. He and Jaylen Waddle worked independently, but Hill did not catch any passes.
  • There was no orange jersey at practice, which isn't uncommon in the first practice after a preseason game.
  • The practice was shorter because of the team's schedule for the week.
  • Only a few plays stood out in practice, though we should point out that linebacker Curtis Bolton stripped the ball from a receiver during back-to-back plays. Bolton has been very active throughout the training camp.
  • Defensive tackle Brandon Pili had nice pressure up the middle.
  • Zach Sieler also was very active, both against the run and in the pass rush.
  • Tua had a nice touch throw to Braxton Berrios over a defender.
  • Defensive lineman Isaiah Mack pressured Tua on a pass play, and later, after pressure up the middle from Calais Campbell, Tua tripped over Liam Eichenberg's feet.
  • Tua had an excellent scramble up the middle in a later 11-on-11 session.
